    i've learned the hard way that some nuero-divergent behaviors (like mine) sow distrust within neuro-typical people who won't let you help organize w them out of instinctual fear.

    the last times i tried with the greens; lgbtq center in san jose; and the gmhc in new york; they had me spending the overwhelming majority of my time picking up garbage in parking lots and roads by myself.

    the last 2 times were galling because i was a software engineer at the time w 10+ years of experience in IT and offered my services as a response to their advertised needs for IT & web developers/admins; yet i was only picking up garbage alone 95% of the time.

    That's a terrible way to be treated. I hope you have a better experience if you ever choose to try again.

    fortunately my neurodivergence makes me forget A LOT so it's likely that i will try again. lol

    Haha I relate to that. I recently started applying to something, got hung up on a question, and realized I had started the process already and gotten hung up on the same spot

    story of my life lol.

    that's why i put myself into that volunteering situation again despite the bitter taste of the first one and also why i been trying to finish a book series by s.m. sterling for the last 25 years; every time i try, i run into hand written notes from me in the past telling me that i need to read the previous book to remember what's going on.

    i had never considered that. lol

    and it would be accurate if the protagonist lost his memory every year or so instead of every day. lol

    and more so if he used his phone's camera & audio recording to remind him of things instead of post-its. lol
